Does CU football coach Mike MacIntyre have anxiety about new boss?

University of Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre has yet to work one football game with the Buffaloes, and he’s already on his second boss. Former CU athletic director Mike Bohn hired MacIntyre. New CU athletic director Rick George never met MacIntyre until Wednesday. “I think any person, working anywhere in America, if his direct boss leaves, it’s always a bit anxious,” MacIntyre told me. “Not just in football, but in any business. I think anybody would feel a little bit anxious about that.”

George believes CU can win a national championship in football. I think getting comfortable with MacIntyre as the right coach to meet that lofty goal is job No. 1 for George. But Peter Burns of Mile High Sports Radio disagrees, thinking all George needs to worry about right now is raising money for a cash-strapped athletic department. Listen to us argue it out here:

Get over yourself KIZ… McIntyre is in fine standing, so is the new AD. There is no controversy. If you’re looking for controversy go start an ‘I hate Zimmerman’ rally (based on emotion, not facts – see the similarities???) People on this site aren’t going to pander to your pot-stirring attempts? Don’t you have another job that you can do? Do you want one? My cousin is looking for a busboy at her new restaurant, you’d be a great candidate. No offense to any busboys….

Your contempt for CU is almost humorous. Colorado is probably the only state where the media actively works to damage the flagship university. Pay no mind to the fact that only CU football is struggling, while our basketball, track and field, ect all thrive and promote the school in a positive fashion. Also our football attendance in the worst year in football history was still 8th in the PAC12. Instead of supporting CU and recognizing that the university is shelling out the kind of money necessary to compete, you never fail to put the negative spin on it. CU could by some miracle go 12-0 and Im sure you and the DP would not be able to say something positive.
